What If? Physicists often measure the momentum of subatomic particles moving near the speed of light in units of MeV/c, where c is the speed of light, and 1 MeV = 1.6 ✕ 10-13 kg · m2/s2. Based on this, what are the units of momentum for a high-speed subatomic particle in terms of fundamental SI units?

    (kg⋅m/s)

    Explanation:

    The unit of momentum is the product of the units of mass and velocity. In SI units, if the mass is in kilograms and the velocity is in meters per second then the momentum is in kilogram meters per second (kg⋅m/s)
